Personal profile
Research profile
The research is within microsociological and social psychological themes. The overall research interest focuses on identity creation and emotion sociology issues. Theoretical research is conducted in symbolic interactionist approaches based on, among others, G. H. Mead as well as emotion sociology perspectives including Eva Illouz and Thomas Scheff. The research is directed towards emotion sociology themes such as shame, romantic love in late modern society and understandings of happiness and well-being. The research is also directed towards narrative approaches and understandings both theoretically as a meta-perspective and with relevance for the understanding of identity creation, resilience and well-being as well as in relation to a qualification of qualitative research approaches.
Teaching profile
The teaching is within social psychology, microsociology, scientific theory topics and qualitative methods. Specifically, teaching includes an elective course in basic social psychology in the sociology program, in scientific theory in the 6th semester of the sociology program, in emotional sociology themes in another elective course (previously a theoretical track in the master's program) and in a methods course regarding narrative approaches. In addition, the teaching consists of guidance of internship students in relation to completing the internship course in the sociology program in the 8th semester, including strengthening the students' employability. The supervision obligation is mainly directed at thesis students in sociology and the master's program in social work, as well as guidance at bachelor's level in the 6th semester of the sociology program.
